joining us right now, keith springer, abbigail doolittle, and our own bob posani. keith, let me get your take on the cliff here and on what's to happen in terms of the markets. do you expect the economy to go over the fiscal cliff? what kind of reaction might we see in the market if that were to materialize? >> well, if we saw the market sell off in a big way, i don't think anybody believes we're going to go over the fiscal cliff. there will be some sort of resolution. they'll come up with some tax cuts, some breaks in spending, and probably kick the can down the road on a lot of it. i love the way this market is acting. it's not selling off with all the bad news, all the bickering, all the bad words on each side. you've got to love the way that this market is holding up here. doesn't mean investors need to be carefree, but overall, it looks like the market is setting up with a lot of negative sentiment out there. looks like there's a lot of opportunity for a big run higher once we get some form of resolution. i really believe we're going to get it. >> you think by

we did, bob. we did. got it. >>> lately i've been getting a ton of calls about the printing business. no, i'm not talking about old-fashioned printers like the kind you buy from a dinosaur like hewlett-packard. i mean three-dimensional printers. these are machines that can rapidly design and produce functional three-dimensional parts and products. designers use them to whip up prototypes right in their offices instead of having to send out blueprints to an actual manufacturer. increasingly we're seeing them in strange places. dentist's office to make molds and bridges. and now i'm getting a lot of questions. is 3-d printing for real? and if so, what's the best way to play it? because "mad money" is the most interactive show on television i'm going to answer that question right here, right now. first of all, yes, 3-d printing, it is not some sort of flash in the pan. it's not a fad. it's a real thing, and it's in bull market mode. it's here to stay. i bet in a decade as these devices become cheaper we'll s
